Simply delete the relevant script files from the packages they belong to 
(see ./share/octave/packages/<package-name-version>/..... )

As for the io package, dlmread/-write, csvread/-write and textread will 
be dropped in the next release as soon as octave-3.4 will be out (they 
are core octave versions now).

Currently I'm struggling to get the java pkg installed with 
octave-3.3.54, implying the spreadsheet scripts don't work with 3.3.54 
anyway so AFAICS there's little use for io pkg with octave-3.3.54 at 
this moment.
